"It absorbs sunlight with its orange colored crystal and shoots energy from its mouth"

Too bad it has an atrociously low Sp. Atk, or that would be a good Water and Ground counter.

...sooooo...
ban lifted?

The fire starter seems to have the best stats out of the other two, so I may choose it if my brother doesn't choose it first.
I like that new fighting type Roopushin, so it's definitely going to be in my team.

Also, am I the only one here that thinks Meguroko looks awkward standing up?
I mean its evolutions look more like a dinosaur than a crocodile.

Who got banned?

Smuglord.
The ban on media from B/W? Because Nintendo said so?

Oh, THAT ban. Yeah, now "fair use" images can be posted. This, thankfully, includes sprites.

That Basurao fish or whatever it's called, if you catch it in one game and trade it to the other, does it change or stay the same?

Not only does it stay the same, but you can catch both kinds in one game. I currently own both.
In each version, one of them is very common when surfing and the other shows up every once in a while as a shadow in the water (alternate encounter method, similar to shaking grass or pile of dirt).

Strangely, they have a really low capture rate; lower than many legendaries (such as Giratina).

Weird, I caught one on my first ultra ball. I still haven't seen any of the blue ones though. It's kind of disappointing that you run into so many of them while surfing.

I think he means the alternate form is a low catch rate, not the easy to find one.

No, form does not affect catch rate.

I had to throw 10 ultra balls for each after getting them to 1HP D:

25 catch rate, just like Skarmory and Snorlax, etc. and ugh, snorlax was always a ninny to catch D:
